Panhandling real estate is prime in Holyoke, and if you try to work your way onto someone else’s territory, you best be prepared to fight for it. This video is the most Holyoke thing I’ve ever seen.

The welcome to Holyoke sign in the background makes this even more perfect.

We’re not in Easthampton anymore Toto.

As for the fight, wasn’t much of a fight. I watch a lot of Nat Geo. I know how this stuff works. The male vying for the throne comes in and stakes out his claim and the sitting alpha male must defend his territory. Dominance is quickly established, and either the king is dethroned and goes off and dies, or the challenger is rebuked and he must find a new corner to panhandle in. In this case the king stay the king. People who had the misfortune of having to travel to Holyoke on this fine day were greeted to a junkie tapout.

Finally Oliver Cyst relents and realizes he has picked the wrong slopqueef to challenge. Notice how the veteran panhandler even holds onto his cardboard sign throughout the process.

This wasn’t his first junkie jamboree. As a matter of fact he’s made the news previously as a panhandler. Ya see, Holyoke recently passed a resolution that fines panhandlers if they collect money without a license, as they should. Why should you be able to collect money from people on a corner in exchange for nothing, but you can’t collect money from people on a corner and give them a product (like food and drink) in return? It’s an illegal, unlicensed business.

He doesn’t have a job or an apartment, but he can afford a cell phone plan to post on Facebook and whine about how people aren’t giving him enough money.

Yea yo! Why won’t anyone send this obviously drug addicted twat muffin $20? He swears he won’t use it to put Diego the friendly local heroin dealer’s kids through college. If you can’t trust a panhandler who drops n bombs on social media then who can ya trust?

Last year he made the news when he went to the media and whined about how unfair it was that he couldn’t beg strangers to finance his drug habit earlier this year.

“The city ordinance — they’re talking about putting up barriers. How crazy is that when there’s people out here that are hungry. They could turn the empty buildings into shelters. There could be a lot more help for us. We don’t like standing out here. It’s hard enough with us out here trying to make money and now they’re going to do this? That’s pretty much telling the people, ‘Hey, if you give them money, we’re going to punish you. It’s hard enough out here getting help. Sometimes I stand out here all day to make $20,” LeBlanc said.

Hey Matt, here’s an idea – get a job. This is not work.

It’s you refusing to work. Those empty buildings belong to people. You can’t live in them just because they’re empty. That’s not how any of this works. Plus, you’re the type of moron who would manage to find a way to accidentally burn it to the ground and get a firefighter killed.

Nevertheless the corner will remain his until further notice because the challenger, Jaroslaw Bartoszewicz, was in way, way over his head. Jaro is from Chicopee, so he obviously wasn’t aware of how the Holyoke panhandling hierarchy worked. Now he knows.

That second panhandler’s name is so Polish it hurts, must be an old alcoholic… anyway, Holyoke is the trashcan of MA & needs to be set on fire once & for all with all the losers in it. It used to always be on fire, should have just let it burn all the way down. Most panhandlers i’ve ever seen in that city.

i love how these idiots always flick off the camera in some type of public restroom bath selfie. fuck you. it takes a certain type of scumbag to rock a bathroom selfie and defend it. as bret would say “go fuck your mother”.

I never thought much of turf war when it comes to panhandling but I bet the crew that mans the set of lights at the barnes and noble at the holyoke mall must be high up on the western mass pan handlers food chain. Pretty good location I would think, plenty of the coexist crowd shuttling back and forth from the hamptons

I had this misfortune of having to go to Lowell Tuesday afternoon and surer than shit at the bottom of the Exit was a kid maybe 17 yrs. old holding a sign ‘Homeless War Vet please help’.
My wife being the bleeding heart that she is told me to give him something so I tossed a Ketchup packet I had from McDonalds out the window and told him not to eat it all at once.

There was a panhandler at the Highland St. & Park Ave. intersection showing his cardboard ‘Homeless Veteran’ sign at the stopped traffic. Some dude in an Army uniform was waiting at the light in his vehicle when the panhandler walked passed and looked at him. The Army dude flipped him the bird and the panhandler laughed. It must be some mutually understood thing between the ‘homeless veterans’ and the, you know, regular commuting veterans that had to go to drill and couldn’t hang out on the corner that weekend with their ‘commuting veteran’ signs and beg for gas money, tire money, emissions money, uniform allowance and also the fact that they have to pay regular payroll taxes when they’re not in a combat zone. If you see any uniformed commuting veterans, give them Cumbies card or Dunkies card or something this Christmas. Then flip them the bird. They’ll understand. They’re pretty much fucked anyway.

I never give these Fiesta Fucks a dime. The two In Burlington are the worst. I yell at them every day””SUBWAY IS HIRING!” to which he replies; “YA! FUCK YOU!” So I holler back : “EAR FRESH BABY!” fucking shitstains on society. You can stand outside all fucking day, but you cant work? Bullshit!
